Can't quite get my head around this...a car with 75k miles on it now, would I think by default be worth more than the identical car a year ago with the same mileage? As its a year older, with same miles, people pay more for lower mileage cars vs age so isn't that the reason the price is higher more than appreciation? I would agree with JP that prices haven't really budged in terms of what people are buying them up at? Be interesting to see what prices come back on a basic Ford Focus 1.8 2004 just as an example...

It should be quite literally the best condition mechanically Zed in the universe! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Somewhat ironically politics and economics very rarely mix well together

Its a fair point, although who is to say they would have won if they hadn't put the referendum into the manifesto? It certainly may have been enough to push some of those marginal seats into UKIP and Labour hands.

I am pretty sure someone was prosecuted for this about 3 months ago?

Not sure how this has made it to page 4 when you got all the advice you needed on page 1. Reject it, send it back, swallow the cost of delivery (not sure why this is such an issue when you are splashing money on getting it checked?) and get your money back a much wiser buyer in future. They legally cannot refuse to refund you by law if the car is not fit for purpose. Been a few thread on here lately like this where the buyers have successfully sent it back. It sounds to me more like you just want to keep the car because its got a kit on it and its a GT4 but want them to repair it, which is a bigger ask in my opinion (given that it literally involves more effort even though it sits under the same part of the CRA). The front bumper I would say is not Nismo unless it is stamped as such also pretty sure 99% of replicas do not have the headlight washers cut out which yours is missing?

Pretty sure on one of the videos you can see it dropping out the sky behind the trees on the left, you only glimpse it but clearly something with a fiery tail. Pretty spectacular all the same.

Not tried HD but at the moment using Victoria Concours wax and it is fantastic. I used to use Dodo Supernatural but VC certainly outdoes it for deepness of shine and durability.

Presume you have had a good read on detailingworld? http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=291737 Sounds like a great bit of kit, something I might try when my current wax of choice runs out - although what I use currently is fantastic and will take some beating in that price range!

I think you are right, I think the UK will vote to leave the EU. Just a note though, voting to leave the EU is not the same as voting for independence - leaving the EU is not independence.

My parents gave away all my Star Wars stuff in the loft about ten years ago, AT AT walkers, Millennium Falcon the lot...probably cost me a few grand! PS, if you want to run a fun competition at InCarNation happy to give this as a prize in case some Zed owner doesn't have it

Thats effectively the punt you have to take if you want to leave in very simple terms, do these 27 countries need us more than we need them. If not, then we are in a bit of a pickle. Or they think oh well we can get what we need from other suppliers who operate within the EU and do not need to export so heavily to the UK then we find ourselves in a very lonely place. As mentioned before, it all comes back to the trade agreements, these dictate the 'independence' we want in terms of making policy decisions and ultimately what money ends up going on goods vs in your pockets.

The difference is coldel, our politics are made up of 3 or 4 main parties that all share/work towards a common goal they plan out in advance but the EU is what, 28 countries and potentially 28 agendas? You cant compare it. Lets take a local firm to me, Bombardier they are based in Derby and make trains. Because of the EU this happened: http://www.bbc.co.uk...yshire-14019992 it was following EU procurement rules You can't compare it because yes they have to make a bloc of 500m people of different cultures work vs the 70m brits our government have to. Regarding Bombardier, reading the article, isn't it the government that they are complaining about? They also openly admitted that jobs would have gone anyway? Many companies in the UK build stuff for Europe and benefit, there is always a flip side, even as close as people on here such as Ady and Doc who both cite the benefit.

You could argue the same of the 65% who didn't vote Tory in the last election, even if we were out of the EU 65% of people in this country are being dictated to be a body that is something they haven't voted for. Despite what the red tops would have you believe on the whole (admitting there are some odd laws in the EU though) what they put in place is there to make the union work, its not to spite any particular country.

...when you move house and open up those boxes that were in the loft for a few years. Well not that amazing but brought a smile to my face

Greece is slightly different, somewhat ironically that their local polices (such as pensionable age) are what are causing them so many problems. They want to exit the EU so they can effectively print drachmas for fun to pay back money they have borrowed to try and sustain an unsustainable local economy. I actually feel for Greece, yes they happily slide into a spiral of unsustainable debt but the IMF etc. quite happily lent them the money to carry on that way before trying to reign it in before it was too late. There is a belief that being outside of the EU trading bloc you can make up many of your own local laws, which isn't true. The key ones which people are voting leave on for instance such as immigration, will become part of any future trade negotiation between the UK and the EU. We won't know how much control we will have on these issues until the Leave campaign actually come out and say what type of trade deal they want with the EU - this is why I feel like I have to keep shouting this out, the trade deal is pretty much EVERYTHING in this decision to stay or leave in my opinion as it has such wide reaching influences.

Why do you call it Project Fear?

They should just peel off, other tricks are to rest a microfibre of hot water on it for a few minutes which will loosen the adhesive. But any stickers should just peel away, take your time and be patient.

Yes thats the point, people at work mock me for loving old jap cars, but on the flip side have openly admitted they are jealous that I have a passion that I am devoted to.

As my wife said, when men hit middle age they either get a stupidly impractical car and blow their money on it, or they get themselves a mistress and blow a load of money on her - win win in her eyes

Sound's like you want to write something Possibly...I could do you a cracking article on the pros and cons of the UK in the EU
